Makita PB002GZ 40V Max Li-ion XGT Brushless Portable Band Saw – Batteries and Chargers Not Included

Makita is the leading manufacturer of professional power tools on the market. Introducing XGT, a new 40V standalone system; with a new charging adapter to allow the new 40V XGT platform to use the DC40RA charger and DC40RB Twin Port Charger to charge both LXT slide type battery and the new XGT battery, in as little as 28 minutes. The XGT range of tools and batteries have a built-in program that provides digital communication between the battery and the tool, allowing for the battery not only to talk with the tool but also for the tool to talk to the battery. The PB002GZ is a cordless Portable Band Saw, designed mainly for the efficient cutting of 4” to 4 ½” steel pipes, for optimal performance in continuous, heavy duty applications. The PB002GZ is powered by 40V Max XGT battery (not included) to supply energy to the powerful 40V brushless motor, with soft start for smooth start-ups, variable speed controlled by dial to enable the operator to match the speed to the application and constant speed control to automatically apply additional power to the motor to maintain constant speed under load, for high speed cutting with an increased blade speed of 0 to 3.2 metres per second. The PB002GZ is equipped with lock-on function for continuous use, electric brake for increased operator safety, anti]-restart function to minimise motor start-up when the battery is inserted with the switch locked on and twin LED job light with pre-glow and after-glow. The PB002GZ has an adjustable stopper plate, tool-less blade change for easy installation and removal of the blade and easy blade tracking adjustment simply by turning a screw. The PB002GZ features battery protection circuit designed to protect the battery from damages due to overheating, over-discharge and overload current. The PB002GZ has blade length of 1,140mm, width 13mm and thickness 0.5mm with a maximum cutting capacity in round pipe of 127mm and 127mm x 127mm cutting capacity in square pipe. 1 year manufacturer warranty with a further 2 years when registered within 30 days of purchase. This guarantee does not apply where non-genuine or recommended parts or accessories are fitted to the tool. The use of non-genuine or compatible batteries and chargers with Makita tools will invalidate the Makita guarantee for our tools.
